Patent CA-2460028-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MARTZ ERIK O
IPC: A61F2/00
Filed: 2002-10-28
Abstract: Selon la présente invention, les implants rachidiens et autres peuvent être d'origine osseuse ou synthétique, peuvent se présenter sous une forme circulaire, rectangulaire, en forme de C. etc. et peuvent également comporter des surfaces supérieures et inférieures en forme de bord biseauté de manière qu'ils puissent correspondre notamment à la lordose de l'espace discal des vertèbres adjacentes. Ces implants comportent un ou plusieurs évidements alignés dans un sens d'insertion au niveau d'un ou des deux côtés périphériques externes de l'implant. Dans un implant circulaire, par exemple, formé à partir d'un tronçon transversal de la diaphyse d'un os long ou autre, les évidements sont alignés de manière qu'ils chevauchent les côtés opposés du cercle parallèles au sens d'insertion, lesquels côtés sont plus résistants que la zone plus centrale chevauchant la chambre centrale dans l'implant et alignée avec cette chambre. Cet alignement avec les côtés opposés permet de réduire au minimum les dommages causés à l'implant au niveau de la zone centrale plus fragile sous l'effet de forces d'insertion de l'implant. Un ou deux évidements espacés, situés sur les côtés opposés d'un implant et comportant une ou plusieurs surfaces transversales par rapport au sens d'insertion, reçoivent les extrémités des mâchoires de serrage d'insertion de l'implant afin de recevoir une charge d'insertion induite par les extrémités. Les évidements peuvent comporter des surfaces de serrage s'étendant dans le sens d'insertion, qui peut être antérieur/postérieur ou à un certain angle par rapport au sens antérieur/postérieur en vue d'une insertion latérale ou antérieure/latérale par rapport au sens antérieur/postérieur. L'implant de la présente invention peut être non osseux et peut être utilisé pour maintenir ou pour coller un os non restreint à la colonne vertébrale. Cette invention concerne divers modes de réalisation portant sur les instruments d'insertion et les implants.

Title: Database management system
Inventor: JONES DEAN MICHAEL
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2002-09-30
Abstract: A database management system comprising a plurality of database resources (1 2, 14, 16) includes a query engine (30) which parses incoming queries into sub- queries directed at respective resources, (12, 14, 16) and compiles the sub- results into a final result. A node and a link representation is used to associate values from a different resources to address problems of semantic mismatch. In addition, ontologies are compiled for each resource against a shared ontology and a user/application ontology. As a result of the system, problems of semantic mismatch and query integration against distributed resources is overcome.

Abstract: Improved citral derivatives, and fragrances and flavorings including the derivatives, that have a longer useful shelf life than citral and/or fragrances and flavorings including citral, are disclosed. In particular, the derivatives maintain the fragrance characteristics of citral, while lowering the allergic properties, and lemony flavors and fragrances with a longer shelf-life than citral, are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods of making the derivatives, and articles of manufacture including the derivatives. In one embodiment, the derivatives are prepared by replacing one or more double bonds in citral with a cyclopropyl group, which can be unsubstituted, or substituted with one or two lower alkyl, preferably methyl groups. The alkyl groups can optionally be substituted, for example, with electron donating groups, electron with drawing groups, groups which increase the hydrophilicity or hydrophobocity , and the like. In another embodiment, the derivatives are prepared by replacing the aldehyde group in citral with a nitrile, methyl ether or acetal group. The acetal groups can provide the compounds with a long lasting flavor or fragrance, where the acetals slowly hydrolyze to provide the aldehyde group in citral. In some embodiments, both the aldehyde and at least one of the double bond functional groups are both derivatized as described herein. Examples of suitable articles of manufacture include candles, air fresheners, perfumes, disinfectant compositions, hypochlorite (bleach) compositions, beverages such as beer and soda, denture cleanser tablets and flavored orally-delivered products such as lozenges, candies, and the like.

Title: Method and system for producing an oil and gas mixture through a well
Inventor: EKEN ADRIAAN NICOLAAS
IPC: E21B43/32
Filed: 2002-09-30
Abstract: A method and system are provided for controlling the production of oil and g as in a well such that the well operates at the edge of gas coning. Thereto the flow rate and/or pressure of the produced well effluents are controlled by a dynamically controlled choke such that continously a limited amount of gas i s entrained in the produced crude oil, whereas full gas coning and breakthroug h of gas from the gas cap is prevented. The choke may be controlled by a contr ol system which includes an algorithm that takes wellhead temperatures, pressur es and choke position as measured variables and which maintains the average bul k velocity of the well effluents at a substantially constant and relatively hi gh level. Optionally, the system also maintains an optimal gas-to-liquid ratio of the well effluents.

Patent CA-2484769-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BATEMAN ROBERT HAROLD
IPC: H01J49/06
Filed: 2004-10-14
Abstract: A mass spectrometer is disclosed comprising an ion source 4, a field free or drift region 5 and an ion mirror 7 comprising a reflectron. Metastable parent ions which spontaneously fragment by Post Source Decay whilst passing through the field free or drift region 5 are arranged to enter the ion mirror 7 and be reflected by the reflectron towards an ion detector 8 when the reflectron is maintained at a certain voltage. The process is then repeated with the reflectron being maintained at a slightly lower voltage. Two related sets of time of flight or mass spectral data are obtained for the two different voltage settings of the reflectron. From the two data sets the different times of flight for the same species of fragment ion can be determined. The mass to charge ratio of the parent ion which fragmented to produce the particular species of fragment ion can then be determined from the times of flight of the fragment ions.

Abstract: A turbine blade retention system, for use with a rotor hub disk with peripheral circumferential array of spaced apart blade retention slots extending between the forward and rearward hub faces, each slot having a radially inward floor and side walls adapted for sliding engagement with a blade root of a turbine blade. The blade root has a bottom surface which when engaged in the slot, is radially spaced from and adjacent the slot floor thus defining a gap extending between the forward and rearward hub faces at said selected broach angle. The blade root retention tab has an elongated web with a thickness less than said gap and including a preformed transverse flange extending from a first end of the web and a second end that extends from the slot and is bent on installation into an installation flange. The web is adapted to be disposed in the gap when the web rests on the slot floor to permit sliding engagement of the blade root in the slot while the preformed flange engages one of the forward and rearward faces of the rotor hub disk.  The web of the tab includes at least two deformable protrusions extending radially to a height exceeding the gap, so that the protrusions deform on sliding engagement with the blade root in the slot and secure the blade radially outward during grinding of the tip for example.
